Abstract:
An apparatus comprises an integrated circuit and at least one lens. The integrated circuit comprises an image sensor having a light sensing region. The light sensing region is partitioned into sub-regions. The integrated circuit also comprises a processor coupled with and beneath the image sensor. The processor is configured to generate a first processed image based on an image captured by one sub-region, and a second processed image based on another image captured by another sub-region. The first processed image and the second processed image are generated based on a pixel correction process executed by the processor which corrects one or more of the image or the another image based on a predefined light reception factor associated with the sub-regions. The image sensor is configured to receive light via the light sensing region through the at least one lens.
